Dynamic DNS Update
The EBW-E100 can forward the IP address, which it was allocated during the dial-
in into the Internet, to a DynDNS provider, so it can be reached from the Internet
with a domain name. This means that the network behind the router can always be
reached with the same domain name from the Internet, also for dynamically
allocated IP addresses (if incoming connections are not blocked by the provider).
The IP address connected to the domain name at the DynDNS provider will be
updated for this during each dialup. For this function, you will need an account
with a DynDNS provider.
Alternatively or additionally to the DynDNS protocol, it is possible to update up to
five further DNS entries with the IP address of the router with the provider FreeDNS.
Configuration via web interface (menu "Server services", page "Dyn. DNS
update")
In order to configure the dynamic DNS update, check the checkbox
"Activate dynamic DNS update".
Select a DynDNS provider from the drop-down list "DynDNS provider".
In order to define an own DynDNS server, select in the drop-down list
"DynDNS provider" the entry "Userdefined DynDNS" and enter a
DynDNS server in the entry field "Userdefined DynDNS server".
Enter the domain name to be updated into the entry field "Domain
name".
Enter user name and password of your DynDNS account into the entry
fields "User name" and "Password".
In order to use a DNS entry of FreeDNS, enter the hash value generated
by FreeDNS into one of the "Hash" fields.
This hash value will be generated automatically when creating a
domain to be updated. It can be taken from "quick cron example" or
read out from the curl or wget scripts offered for download. It will be
generated from user name, password and the domain to be updated
and looks like this for example:
azVRU6MzSaVRcWc0WWs193c4MlmQ6vTA37fDIz1Dc=
In order to register the IPv6 address with FreeDNS, check the checkbox
"IPv6" behind the respective hash entry.
Save your settings by clicking "OK".
